It has been hard work out there Tincan but there are few fish around jut nothing big yet. I fish mostly Salamanca, it seems to be more consistent than on the inside of Galliano for me but also work the inside of Active Pass [Colinson Point area] and occasionally down to Sidney. Some guys swear by Pender Bluffs but its never bean very productive for me. Haven't gotten up to Porlier yet this year, maybe later in the month. From following the Vancouver thread it seems guys are making the crossing and picking up some better sized fish along with Coho so you'd think they'd be showing up further south. Look forward to hearing how you do.
Fished Collison Point Saturday for about an hour just before low tide. Was watching the port side rod when I finally noticed my starboard rod bouncing fiercely. By the time I got to the rod it the fish was off. White hoochie in 75 feet. Lots of bait balls in the water. I used to fish Active Pass as a kid in a 15 ft Whaler and an 18 Outrage Whaler - we crossed from Point Roberts. I remember being on the bow of the 15 footer on the east side of Active Pass mooching and wondering if the ferry waves were going over the bow! No way I would cross the Straight in a 15 ft Whaler nowadays!
